โฆ Synopsis
A microscopic model of hardened cement paste (HCP) has been established in which the characteristics of pore, crystal, gel and bound are considered. By using Finite Element Method, the relation between microstructure and mechanical behavior of hardened cement paste is studied, and some examples are given.

In this paper the authors tried to analyze their drying shrinkage data in terms of the Munich model. They have attributed the shrinkage below 40% RH to a change in the surface free energy (socalled Bangham shrinkage) and the shrinkage above 40% RH to the disjoining pressure. As the authors are propo
An improved method for the evaluation of sorption data is outlined. This \*thermo-dynamic approach" takes the change of surface tension of adsorbed liquid films into consideration. No assumption on the pore shape has to be introduced. In addition to the pore size distribution changes of the surface
